The super-magical Wi-Fi landline for kids. No screens, no texting, no strangers — just real conversation with Grandma, besties, and contacts you approve. Plug in, twirl that cord, and time-travel to pure voice fun. Backed by Greylock.
About the role
A kid in another country wants exactly what a kid here wants: to call their best friend without a smartphone in the way. Our first international markets are close to launch — devices are on their way, the compliance work is underway, the phones will work when they arrive. What we don't have is anyone whose whole job is making families over there want one.
What they're looking for
- Autonomy above all else. The first 6–9 months won't be won by a genius strategy, they'll be won by figuring out the top N things to test, and running at them as fast as you can
- 6+ years in growth, general management, or international expansion at a consumer business—you've carried a number, not just written a plan
- You've led expansion into new countries and can speak to multiple versions of the problem: how do we sell more of these, how do we get them there, what needs to be different about the product/service and how we operate to succeed there?
- Real marketing instincts. This isn't a marketing role, but you'll live or die on GTM, you can partner closely with marketers and be dangerous enough to run something yourself when it comes to that
- An ownership mentality, you think about P&L, growth, and customer experience as one thing, and you're comfortable being the person accountable for the result
- Fluency using AI as a multiplier across research/analysis/execution, paired with the judgement to know when AI is not the solution

That's this role. On day one you pick up growth in our first expansion markets. As those markets find their footing, you'll take full ownership of them — not just demand, but everything it takes to operate there. Every...
